Adelaide Crapsey Frocks
for Little Folks
You really must not fail to see our exclusive little hand-made
frocks, fashioned by Adelaide Crapsey and her devoted helpers,
for kiddies from two to ten years. Adelaide Crapsey, a lover
of children, began making the dresses for charity, but so lovely
were they and so "different" that the rich grew envious and
came a-knocking and beseeching at her kindly door. Thus it was
that a generous thought grew into a prosperous business, though
Adelaide Crapsey still lovingly inspects and packs every frock which
bears hor name. Nor is she mercenary, all her goods are most rea
sonably priced and we take pride in the fact we are the exclusive
agents for Philadelphia.
A new model just received is of imported dotted swiss in blue,,
pink, yellow, copen or green, having white lawn guimp with plaited
collar and cuffs.
Sizes 3 to-5 years, 10.75 ; 6 to 10 years, 12.75. ,
